How to express life through textiles? The exhibition at the Forssa Nature Museum will feature the Finnish Felt Association Filt's mini textile exhibition "Little Wonders of Nature" and the stunningly beautiful, crocheted bird sculptures and the accompanying video work made with the amazing micro-crochet technique by Lithuanian Rūta Naujalytė.

Tiny Wonders of Nature is a mini textile exhibition by the Finnish Felt Association Filtti, showcasing the diversity and expressive power of Finnish felt art. The exhibition brings together felted interpretations of a world where even the smallest detail can tell a big story.

Rūta Naujalytė is a textile artist creating soft sculptures from sewing threads using a micro-crochet. Her work explores incompleteness, bird symbolism, and social themes like feminism, ecology, and time.
